Leveraging Amazon’s EC2 for development projects

    Saturday, January 22, 2011

    I’m really starting to believe that having access to Amazon’s Cloud services (or really any cloud platform) is a must-have for practically any enterprise development project.  I’m not talking about running the final product on AWS or even the development environment on AWS, though we do that often enough.  Instead, I am talking about using AWS services as a tool to assist in tasks that are common in many enterprise development projects.

    Merging Day CQ5, Spring, and JPA for a hybrid web application

    Monday, September 13, 2010

    If you subscribe to the mantra that “everything is content” then you probably can store everything in CQ and never have a need to integrate with other data-oriented systems.   On the other hand, if your organization or client deals with assets such as relational databases, CRMs, or other systems, your job is probably more interesting and you may want to read on.    What we have seen is that there is a growing demand to integrate the power of a full-fledged WCM, such as Day CQ5, with functionality previously found only in traditional transactional-based web applications.  These hybrid applications must render a web page that integrates both author-controlled content and traditional enterprise data, sourced from assets such as Oracle DB, SAP, Salesforce, etc.  They must also be capable of handling business transactions typically done on the web.

    Sweepstakes with JBoss Infinispan, ModeShape, and others.

    Wednesday, June 9, 2010

    Don’t wait for Ed McMahon to come knocking on your door for this Sweepstakes.  Instead, make sure you grab the CITYTECH mobile app “Summit World 2010″ which will be released to the Apple AppStore and Google MarketPlace sometime before JBoss World on June 22, 2010 (keeping fingers crossed on AppStore acceptance).     Once you have the mobile app and the conference starts,  you can start answering trivia questions served up by our “Trivia Server” running in the Amazon Cloud using JBoss ModeShape and Infinispan.    Questions are mostly technical in nature and each correct answer is worth specific points.  The more points you earn, the better your chances of winning great prizes in the sweepstakes drawing at the end of the conference.    I know the marketing folks are planning to top the Kindle prizes from last year, so make sure to stop by the CITYTECH booth to see what they have in mind.
